Yeah, song was used for like the Japan Winter Olympic qualifier or something when I saw. It sounds pretty nice, gotta hear the verses and stuff, but the chorus seems relaxing. Probably will be used for some anime ED, something calm, something smooth, something that'll make you fall asleep (in a good way). Hopefully this is a sign that they'll fully come back before their reunited concert at their 20th L'Anniversary. I still love them! Ugh, friggin' PC got BSOD so I gotta once again re-obtain all their stuff.

If they're releasing singles, we might possibly get one more full length album from them before quits. I mean they are getting older, no matter if they sound even better than 15 years ago. Tetsuya is tetsu's real name anyways, so there's some understanding there, but I'll still call him tetsu. Lives only from 2011 onwards? So maybe more singles from now until their big concert, then more tours? Interesting.

These guys are pretty much brothers in real life, they just get back together and can do a song without any practice. Oh, and heard the new single in its entirety, it's pretty good. Maybe not another #1 on the Oricon charts, but I can see it easily topping top ten. Actually, forget what I said. Listening to it again, I think it can easily reach top of the charts. And with the help from the Japan Winter Olympics, but this song is really good. HYDE's what, 42? 43? And still hitting those high notes? Though I always said his voice has matured greatly over the years as he got older.

Alot of people's voice mature as they get older. so yeah. I think hyde's 40-41. roughly. they've been together for like, 19 years. (except ken and yukihiro. xD. but then again, ken and tetsu knew each other for quite a while too) . o.O |

Yeah, they're all over 40, I know that. Lost track of their ages though, sue meh. >:P tetsu and Ken knew each other way back in high school I believe, or during college. I know it was around that time he called him up and Ken became the guitarist for this band instead of doing something else, I forget. Yukihiro joined during the late '90s, and thank god for that, so yeah he'll be with them at least a decade. :D I'm currently re-dLing all of my Laruku stuff again since my PC got BSOD, so I'm just going to be dLing a crap load of music the next few days while I watch all the anime I have yet to see but already dLed. XD My iTunes playlist(s) are going to be friggin' epic! I checked my HD space and it said 18 GB, which was false, so I had to google the issue cause I had over 130 left tops (which I did after figuring out the issue). But yeah, I was like shocked, cause although the Macbook's HD is small, there's no way I used up all the space already. Sucks how emptying the trash will be a more prioritized thing now (like in real life).

Well the files still counted as space even though they were in the trash. For now I'm going to keep my music files on my Macbook HD instead of my external HD. There's plenty of space but I better back it up now and then... Onto Laruku, yes, tetsu asked Ken who was in university to join the band after Hiro left. It's fate that the current members would all meet each other and join to form the final L'Arc~en~Ciel. It's awesome. I can see this song used for like romantic dramas and whatnot. I'm loving it more and more.

Yeah the most I listen to it, I can see it topping the charts easily. Though it's a very short song, but very inspirational. Love the simple PV. You know who I'm rooting for in the Winter Olympics. :P My favorite part is the very beginning before Hyde starts singing, where you see them in their studio (where the love happens...). lol~~ I like how Hyde is just looking (at something), but tells me it's like he's looking at them over the years. Maybe I'm thinking about the reunion concert, maybe I'm probably right but something else, who knows. It's still nice to see. Listening to it again, it slightly reminds me of "Anata".

*bump* Anyone see the pre Paris L'7 Tokyo Dome show? Holy moses!! Their "MY HEART DRAWS A DREAM" live is the greatest performance of musical goodness I've ever seen. They added a chant which makes the crowd sing the last bridge, and it's so beautiful. Everyone in the crowd was singing along and/or crying at the same time. Simply amazing. This was before they went on hiatus, btw, but omg I cannot wait for their return concert now!!!

Yeah I'm totally going to try to get the DVD. I had the iso file for the concert in Paris on my PC, but I stopped using it cause it crashed. But now I'm a full Mac user, and I did find the same file I dLed for the PC, but like it was weird when I mounted it. I'm going to try to find their Tokyo Dome DVD though, cause it came out late last month (March). On youtube there's also Stay Away (regular formation).

There's a singles album where all of them sing it actually... which I have (or can easily obtain). ;P Oh btw, I totally have their Tokyo Dome concert from their L'7 Tour in 2008, and it's awesome, but their 2011 20th L'Anniversary is going to be SO AMAZING, one of the best musical concerts and most anticipated in Japan EVER! My PS3 has other movies, but it has the Tokyo Dome concert, Vamps first tour, and Laruku's Okinawa tour and Theater of Kiss tour. XD I have another concert I have in mind in getting if I can find the details of it since it's upped on youtube entirely. ^_~`
